Mississippi is where the Blues, rock ’n roll and country music were born. From blues legends Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters and B.B. King to the king of rock ’n roll, Elvis Presley, to the father of country music, Jimmie Rodgers—the only place you’ll find the history, heritage, legends and folklore that surround the sounds of America’s music is Mississippi.
